Reality check. Play the Long game. Clean out the slugs and continue to grow.

I've never been a Mike Kieth fan. Couldn't stand him when he was with the Titans. When Bob retired the first words out of my mouth to anyone was please lord don't hire Mike. Oh well. Can't always get your way, just won't ever listen to a broadcast anymore. TV or nothing now. I used to listen to Ward instead of tv he was so great.

We are in the minority, but I agree. Wilkerson on the call for bball is a masterclass. That’s who I wanted for bball. I had to listen to the Houston game Im the car and he and Hamer crushed it.

I agree the Vols have gotten better asa team. #4 is the most improved player over the season. He was getting burnt in early games but has played much better as of late. Vols will take care of business Saturday.

Keith’s sports radio program in Knoxville was really good. I think he does a great job in football. He definitely needs experience in basketball. I agree, Wilkerson is great.

Baptism by fire for Redmond but he’s coming into his own. He’s going to be a legit DB for us.

Wow I never knew Mike Keith had haters. Dude is the definition of knowledge and class but to each his own.

Thanks for letting us know

I like him. He gets excited when the Vols do something good. Kesling & Pat Ryan would sound depressed.

He doesn't, but it's still not easy being green.

I wasn't a Bob Kesling fan either. He was very dry and got names and info wrong alot. I was hoping for someone other than Mike, didn't have anybody else in mind.

Just remember he is a true freshman. Going from guarding high wideouts to full blown SEC talent is a bit overwhelming I am sure.

Bob Kesling had both those things and had “haters”. I am not a “hater”, I just don’t think he’s great at bball and he wasn’t my choice for football but it doesn’t really bother me either. I don’t have to listen, so it’s not a big deal. He’s fine, Im just not among those that thinks he’s great. It’s subjective.

Got ya. I haven’t heard him call a Vols bball game yet. Kesling was definitely better at basketball than football. But as it relates to football, Kesling is not even in the same ball park as Keith as far as personality and preparation imo.

I never cared much for him as a sports host, but I think he does a great job as an announcer. He tutored under John Ward himself.

As did his predecessor, whom Ward handpicked. Both have their strengths . Kesling was clearly tired and seemingly not as engaged later in his career.

I certainly don't hate him and his knowledge is obvious, but his announcing style doesn't get me motivated. I preferred Bob K, but to each his own.
